Master Cleanse Day #2

Holy crap... this is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. Well, psychologically anyways. If I listen to my body, I'm really not hungry at all... my stomach isn't growling (and if it is, I have some more lemonade)... but my brain keeps telling me I should be eating. Of course, the only things that sound good are things like ice cream and cheeseburgers. They say that you crave things things only for the first few days... it's the things that are bad for you that you are getting rid of from your body... so I must have had a lot of ice cream and cheeseburgers throughout my years! I was really wanting to give up this whole thing tonight... I felt like I just needed to eat... when I got a call from my friend Missy. She's done the cleanse before and was just some words of encouragement. I know I'll feel better, both physically and emotionally, after I complete the cleanse, but it's nice to hear that encouragement that I can make it through the full 10 days. Supposedly day 2 is the hardest. I know tomorrow will be rough too... we're having a pizza party during our meeting at lunch... so it'll be pretty rough for me to make it through that. Because, unfortunately, unlike today's meeting, I can't leave in the middle of it. Please keep praying for me to have the motivation and will-power to complete this. Sometimes I think I can do it, and other times it just seems like too much to handle.
